Dear Colonel Amery,

7. Millbank.

London, 5.8.1.

January 29th, 1920.

re Order in Council, China.

May I refer you to my letter of the 6th inst.. to

which your Secretary replied on the 16th inst. saying that you

were communicating with the Foreign Office on the matter to

which I referred, and hoped to be able to send me a reply

shortly.

We have just had a cable from Shanghai, from which it

is clear that the Order in Council has created a great deal of

dissatisfaction amongst our american employees, and it is with

difficulty that we are preventing a disintegration of the

organisation.

May I, therefore, hope that you will be able to go into the matter with a view to special consideration being given

to the peculiar position in which this Copény is placed?

company

Yours faithfulay,

Kaph.
